My loving wife tells me I've taken the steps I can at the moment, so try not to obsess over it until the appointment. She realizes, however, how very hard that will be for me.
You are so lucky that your wife is loving and understanding.
I am age 40 and going through a similar situtation with a wife that is providing zero love and zero support and has completely alienated me since I told her I suspect that I have Aspergers and need help.
What I wouldn't do for some love and support from her.
I am very blessed by wife. She is the best thing that ever happened to me. Her reaction has been and is that I'm the same person either way and she loves me. If getting diagnosed helps me understand myself and can help us in our relationship during those times when I react so differently, then so much the better. I'm so sorry you are not feeling that kind of unconditional love. It can make all the difference in the world and I pray you will soon experience the level of love and support you need.
